The development of the nautical sector in Sicily could involve a further growth not only for nautical tourism, but also all activities related to it.

Charter companies also organize excursions and boat trips and offer their support in organizing the boat holiday providing some services, as storeroom, car rental, flight reservations, diving and land excursions.
